If an item you need is charged out to another patron, the item may be recalled. Recalls may be placed in the Griffin Campus Library with the item’s call number and your UGACard.
When an item is recalled, the loan period may be shortened. A notice is sent to the current user informing them of the item’s new due date.
For UGA patrons, recall fines are $1.00 per day per item with a maximum accrued recall fine of $30.00 per item. For GIL Express patrons, recall fines are $2.50 per day per item with a maximum accrued recall fine of $30.00 per item. Library privileges may be suspended and/or flagged if the item is not returned in a timely fashion.
In the event that more than one user has recalled the same item, each user will be able to borrow it for a two-week period in the order that the recalls were placed. Items recalled to be put on course reserve take precedence over other requests.
